-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi List, I'm currently trying to install the Calendar Server (DCS) and I ran into some problems. That's why I'm here looking for some help. I installed a fresh Ubuntu 10.10 (Server Edition) in a VirtualBox Environment, checked out the latest Trunk and directly encountered my first problem when running "./run .s". Here's what I did: user@ubuntu:/opt/CalendarServer$ uname -a Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-22-generic-pae #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 22:14:14 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux user@ubuntu:/opt$ sudo svn co http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/trunk/ CalendarServer […] Ausgecheckt, Revision 7097. user@ubuntu:/opt$ sudo chown -R user:user CalendarServer/ user@ubuntu:/opt/CalendarServer$ ./run -s Downloading libevent... mktemp: too few X's in template `be20e19917e910daddec9ff1640fa706-libevent-1.4.13-stable.tar.gz' % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0Warning: Failed to create the file : No such file or directory 100 264 100 264 0 0 717 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 1466 curl: (23) Failed writing body (0 != 264) I wanted to check with the list if this is a know problem with the build script before opening a bug (already looked in the bugtracker ... didn't find anything).

groups

Hi, I am new to calendarserver and have a question. We are running calendarserver 2.4.dfsg-6 (Debian 6.0) using OpenLDAP as backend. One reason we wanted to use calendarserver was to have a group calendar. Not using scheduling but just authentication groups to share a calendar. curl -u user -X MKCALENDAR https://server:port/calendars/groups/groupname/calendar/ fails with [twistedcaldav.static#info] Directory record <LdapDirectoryRecord[groups@ xxxxxx is not enabled for calendaring Ticket http://trac.calendarserver.org/ticket/330 http://trac.calendarserver.org/ticket/394 indicates that this functionality was disabled. Now I have read it will some shared calendar implementation in version 3.0 of calendarserver, but what are my options with this production version (2.4). Is creating one user and share the password the only option ? (it is not an option I would like) Can one "easily" patch back the old group functionality for LDAP ? (we have working memberof groups in LDAP for other services) Are there other options ? Calendarserver for a single user works well so far. Thanks /Fred

How to restore from pg_dump
by Cyrus Humphreville 03 Mar '11

Dear All, Thanks to the help received from this forum, I am now able to use pg_dump successfully. My problem now is that when I restore the dump into a newer version of DCS (i.e., postgresql-9.0.1--->postgresql-9.0.3), I get this error in iCal: The server responded with “HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error” to operation CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation. I don't get any errors when restoring the dumped file, but I'm definitely missing something. What is the proper way to upgrade/migrate to a newer version of DCS (i.e., 2-->3)? Would greatly appreciate any insight. Thank you! Sincerely, Cyrus -- This electronic mail transmission may contain information that is protected by privacy laws.
